Re: What is Rough?

A dog is born with the tools it's given thru genetics. I think there is very little we can do to change it. The best we can do is do some research before buying a pup.

Re: Shuuting Off Scent

I know that females dont have much scent in spring or summer. Ive heard this said before and think its a bunch of hookie. If i had to make an excuse like that i would get differant dogs. Im no beginner, been around beagles my whole life.
